So McDonald's is giving away free fries for the rest of the year... ... if you use their mobile app ... and agree to the updated terms and conditions ... which say: if you use this app you waive your right to trial in any class action lawsuits against McDonalds." We live in the lamest dystopia. The stuff that got edited out of Snow Crash.

Yes absolutely! I've found doing this has also really helped as a neurodiverse person as well as giving me a ridiculous back catalogue of posts - half of my blog is this sort of stuff 😁

If you finally found the solution to your coding problem in a deep comment or something after having dozens of tabs open, you should write about it in your own blog. Really. Describe the problem in your own words and the solution for it, even if the solution seems really obvious now. Doesn’t matter. Give credit and whatever, but use your own words because you will be surprised at how many people will land on it. Write the blog post you wish you had found.

The one thing about writing for me, at least online, is that with my newsletter, I have no idea what people like unless they reply (and y'all do!). That lack of knowledge reduces my pressure to "make more like that" and allows me to just flow. With my website, that's also something I'll be able to discern since I have privacy respecting analytics. I'm tempted to remove that as well and use semantic engagement (likes, boosts) as such a metric. Or or or, I could just keep doing what I want.

The last few weeks of doing dev work has made me realize that maybe I'm ready to be a software engineer again, although I'd prefer something in a leadership role rather than being the one cranking out code. So if anyone is interested in me, I have a long, proven track record of building software that you've probably used and solving interesting problems to make it possible, and bringing interdisciplinary skills to the table to do so. My résumé is at https://beesbuzz.biz/resume #GetFediHired

I really hate that engineers have made "marketing" such a dirty word because honestly this last year I realized I'm actually a damn good "marketer" and somehow by saying that I fear I lose all my technical credibility. Engineering can build all the cool things they want, but if you can't market it, you are mostly shit out of luck.

I recently wrote a blog post about this 😂 I'm much more preferable to having both formats available, so definitely +1 folks write a blog post after doing a talk!

Liked I've finally got around to updating https://auth.hawx.me/ to use the prefixed api key format for tokens, which means I have removed all previous data. On the plus side the database no longer contains usable raw data https://github.com/hawx/relme-auth/pull/14 by Joshua Hawxwell

Interesting - Related Content I turned off quite a while back due to build speed issues, what would the backlinks template look like? (but short answer no!)

I have You're currently viewing page 1 of 733, of 36637 posts. on my site, which includes all sorts of content, and not even everything as I've got content to backport from Twitter archives 😅

I even find how to make content discoverable hard because if someone's looking for ie a Go post of mine, they could search in the site for it, or go through pages of things tagged go, or try and find it on my new archives page 🤔

Doing some blog cleanup and pondering how most SSGs are built around an assumption that you'll get bored of your blog around 20-30 posts. Or maybe not so much the SSGs as the common blog templates. We're not even talking build speed here. More like information architecture changes needed when you go from "I should start a blog" to a multi-decade waltz of shamelessness with hundreds or thousands of posts. "Page 4 of 78" doesn't quite do it.
